Retired and enjoying working on my memoirs…

Fond memory of BUSM
I got to shake Martin Luther King’s hand together with another BUSM student (who was my beloved wife at the time)… Rev. Dr. King was an alumnus of Boston University School of Theology.

Favorite professor or course at BUSM
Professor Robbins, author of our Pathology textbook at BUSM.

Hobbies outside of work
Biking and, with Victor Hugo, enjoying L’ART D’ETRE GRAND-PERE (French for the Art of being a Grandfather) …

Any other thoughts to share
I thank the Methodist Church for my full tuition and room and board scholarship at BUSM, the same church that created Boston University…
